Reasoning about C programs

Towards automatic Maude specifications generation from C functions

“…rl [1] : < "x", int, undef > => < "x", int, 4 > . rl [2] : < "x", int, x > < "y", int, undef > => < "y", int, x + x > [print x y] . The assignment y =x++ can be specified as: rl [0] : < "y", int, undef > < "x", int, x > => < "y", int, x > < "x", int, x + 1 > .…”

“…On the other hand, the functional programming paradigm [2] is a well known programming model that has been used in the context of formal computing and Artificial Intelligence.…”

“…1, June 2023 DOI: doi.org/10.35970/jinita.v5i1.1846 modules defining rewriting logic theory. In fact, the literature on formal verification of C code is very rich [1,2,5,6,11,12,13,15,16,17,18,19]. However, in this work we are interested in the transformation of a C code to a Maude code.…”
